Fisher Hypothesis implies a one-to-one long-term relationship between nominal interest rate and inflation. Though this one-to-one relationship does not hold in most of the financial markets, there exists strong evidence for a partial relationship between the two variables. This study inquires...

This paper examines exchange rate exposure of country level stock returns in three emerging market economies: Korea, Taiwan and Thailand. The analysis is carried out at country level using stock indexes and trade-weighted exchange rates. Time-varying exchange rate exposure coefficients are...

Generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (GARCH)-type models have been successively used to capture the conditional volatility of macroeconomic and financial time series in the past two decades. However, few diagnostic tests are specifically devised to check the adequacy of...

This paper attempts to find evidence for sign asymmetry of exchange rate exposure. An extended classification of the sources of asymmetry has been introduced in place of somewhat incomplete classification suggested by previous studies. In addition, a new measure is suggested in order to estimate...

This paper uses time-varying second moments to investigate exchange rate exposure betas. Using a BEKK-GARCH(1,21)-M model, time-varying exchange rate exposure betas are obtained with explicit focus on the non-orthogonality between exchange rate changes and market returns. We look into certain...

The noticeable dichotomy between the research and practice of exchange rate exposure management may be partly due to the fact that the degree, the direction and the significance of the exposure to currency risk vastly depend on the method of estimation and the proxies used. In this paper, we...

On the basis that the sources of sign and magnitude asymmetries of exchange rate exposure are largely related to each other, this paper attempts to capture both types of exposure asymmetries in tandem. In addition, the overall impact of incorporating exposure asymmetries on returns is also...

The objective of this study is to identify the short- and long-run determinants of inflation in Sri Lanka. It follows an eclectic approach to seeking possible determinants of inflation and employs an Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) bounds testing approach to test for co integration between...

This paper examines the conditional time-varying currency betas from five developed markets and four emerging markets. We employ a modified trivariate BEKK-GARCH-in-mean model of Engle and Kroner (1995) to estimate the time-varying conditional variance and covariance of returns of stock index,...
